Infected Medusa Piercing: What's Next

I took out my infected medusa piercing thinking that would be for the best but turns out its not. What do I do?

1 Answer

Answered on 23rd May '24

infected piercings are common, removing jewelry may cause ABSCESS FORMATION.. Clean the area gently with SALINE WATER and apply an antibiotic cream.. Keep it dry and avoid touching it with dirty hands.. Do not reinsert the jewelry until COMPLETELY HEALED.. Seek medical help if symptoms worsen..

Skin problem raches and ichinng problem More then 2 years i ised many medicines again ots comming

Male | 52

You have had itchy rashes for at least 2 years already, despite using many medications. But it is necessary to find out what is causing it. The typical causes of long-lasting skin rashes and itching are allergies, eczema, or dermatitis. Get an appointment with a dermatologist to have a thorough evaluation and to receive a customized treatment plan that fits your particular condition.

It is not acne.Its bacterial infection. You need to apply Antibiotic ointment to it. To prevent frequent infections, you should go for laser hair removal. it will keep the area clean and hygienic.

I have rigid black heads and white heads and open pores which kind of clean up I should go for. Nowadays my skin texture which was normal is turning dry.

Female | 25

According to me, you can go for a gentle, non-abrasive deep cleansing. Products that contain natural ingredients like tea tree oil, etc. can help with open pores and do not even have side-effects. For preventing dry skin, you can use natural ingredients like aloe vera etc., which can help keep your skin moist.

Can I use bleach on face if I am under treatment for verrucca plana?

Female | 21

Don't put ble­ach on your face if you have verruca plana. That skin issue­ happens when a virus infects your ce­lls. It creates odd growths. Harsh bleach irritate­s skin more, making problems seve­re. Follow your doctor's advice precise­ly. Treat your skin gently and patiently.

Tiny spots around bum and red nappy rash like when I touch it screams

Male | 13 months

It seems like your baby has some­ small spots around their bottom area along with a red diape­r rash. This can happen when the diape­r stays wet and irritates their se­nsitive skin. Change diapers ofte­n to keep them dry. Use­ soft wipes and let the are­a air out before putting on a fresh diape­r. Also, try a mild diaper rash cream to soothe the­ irritation.

I have acne problem. My dermatologist suggested me Acnilite soap but now it's not available. So please suggest me alternative to that

Female | 21

Acne is common, causing pimples and oily skin. Hair follicles ge­t blocked with oil and dead skin cells. You can try soap with salicylic acid or be­nzoyl peroxide. These­ ingredients unplug pores and re­duce acne. Gently wash your face­, avoid harsh scrubbing.

I did surgery on Keloid on my back but the wound is not healing fast. Please what do should I do to stop the keloid from growing back again.

Male | 43

A keloid is when the skin grows too much after an injury has healed. They may feel itchy or painful. You could use silicone sheets or gel over the wound to stop it from growing back. Additionally, ask your physician about corticosteroid injections which can help flatten the keloid.
